EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: One day dur

was in the advance. We went into camp
about o'clock in the afternoon and the boys
went to work and put up their dog tents and
fixed for the night After supper most Of the
boys had retired early, expecting a good nights
rest Suddenly we heard the Bugler blowing
the " fall in and the next moment we received
orders TO get ready 10 move. We were Soon in
line and tramped away, il being SO dark we
could not see our fle-leaders.
We had not gone far when we heard artillery
firing. it was then we began 10 realize what
was i'm store for Us. Gen. Hardee was going TO
try and make ii troublesome for us TO cross the
Oconee River, that we expected 10 get over the
next day. Word was passed along the line not
10 speak above a whisper. Next came the order
TO halt. We could hear the rumbling Of the
water in Its downward course. 1t was de-
termined 20 transfer the regiment across on a
hatboat, as il would not do TO use paddles.
The next move was TO make cable fast on
the opposite shore. in order 20 do this, some
one must go across. Our company being in
advance the Captain called for two volunteers.
Two Of the youngest boys in the company,
Edward Riley and Frank Delany, at once re-
sponded. The Captain told them il would be a
cold bath, IL bengabout the 25th Of November,
TO say nothing Of the danger; but the boys
started with the courage Of Old veterans. They
stripped of all their clothing aud made the cable
fast 10 their bodies with a small line. As the
boys were about TO start the Captain gave each
gill Of brandy and away they went. VEN
ture to say not man in the company drew a
long breath until they returned, which was in
about 10 minutes, nearly chilled 20 death but
they accomplished the feat. Then the regi-
ment made the crossing on the fiatboat aud
drove the rebels from the ford. III Riley or

The Largest Farm In the World.

In the extreme southwest corner OF
Louisiana lies the largest producing
farm in the world. 1t runs 100 miles
north and south and - miles east
and west, and is owned and operated
by o syndicate of Northern capitalists.
Their general manager, j TX. Wat
kins. gives an interesting account OF
this gigantic plantation, which throws
the great Dalrymple farm in Dakota
into the shade completely.
"The 1900, 900 acres of our tract"
Mr.. Watkins said, ''was purchased
in 1888 from the state Of Louisiana
and from the Uuited States govern
ment. AT that time it was a vast
grazing land for the cattle of the few
dealers in the neighborhood. When
/ took possession found over $4,000
head of half wild horses and cattle.
Nv work was to divide the immense
tract into convenient pastures, estab-
lish stations or ranches every six miles.
The fencing alone cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000. The land found
to be best adapted to rice, sugar, corn
and cotton. All our cultivating,
ditching, ETC., is done by steam pow
er. We take tract, say half O
mil e wide for instance, ana place an
engine on each side. The engines are
portable and operate cable attached
to four plows, and under this arrange
ment we are able to plow thirty acres
a day with only the labor of three
men. Our narrowing, planting and
other cultivation is done in like
manner in fact, there is not single
draught horse on the entire place.
We have, of course, horses for the
herders of cattle, of which we
now have $4,000 head The South
ern Pacific railroad runs for thirty six
miles through our farm. We have
three steamboats, operating on the
waters of out own estate, upon which
there are 800 miles of navigable wat
ers. We have an ice house, o. bank, a
ship yard and rice mill. ."-St. Louis

Jentic Jeffy Harrison. the young
gypsy queen. who died at Jackson,
Miss, on Dec. 81, 1886, was buried
at Dayton, o., in the gypsy lot at
Woodland the other day. AT her
death the body was embalned and
sent north. She was the daughter OF
Henry and Tallie Jcfrreys, who own
large tracts of land near Dayton, and
are related to the Stanleys, who reign
over about twenty tribes that make
their summer home In the Mama val
ley. Besides the immediate relatives
about 100 gypsies were present.
The burial is the fourth of the kind
that has occurred in Dayton since 1851
and, as on former occasions, attracted
crowds OF people to view the street pa
geant. The funeral cortege consisted
of q caravan OF thirty large wagons
loaded with families and carrying oil
their camp and household equipage.
Following each wag, nwere the horses
aud dogs OF the family, numbering in
some cases fifty animals. The pro-
cession was nearly a mile in lenght
and there were in line about 500 hors-
es
A squad of police prevented the en-
trance to the grounds of the crowd.
The Rev. Daniel Berger, OF the Unit
ed Brethren church, conducted the
religious services, consisting of pray
er, and Scripture readings aud SER
mon. The mourners sat about the
grave while the caravan of wagons,
horses and dogs was kept continually
circling the grave on the win ding road
ways. When the minister concluded,
the mourners rose o nd began low
chant in gypsy dialect. The refrain
was caught up by the occupants of
the moving caravan and soon the ar
resounded with the moaning and
wailing. Young gypsy girls carried
flowers of scarlet hue and showered
them in the grave. They cried: Good
by, Jentiel Good by, sweet queen !
Good by !" These manifestations of
grief continued until the pastor bade
The mourners retire.--Dayton (O)

THE ErIquErrE or ALBANIA.
Filtration Unknown and Love MAXI
Ing Forbidden--The Marriage
Ceremonies.

The dress of the Albania women is
ungallantly described by travellers az
hideous. II il said TO be OF thick ma
terial and shepcless o leather band
encircIing the waiste, and usually o
little black cloak lin thrown over tho
shoulders. But the wearers are the
most beautiful women OF eastern Eu-
rope, and their manners always gra-
cious.
Filtration In unknown, and even the
most decorous love making forbidden.
The proper thing il for the lovernevcr
to see bis intended till their marriage
day. She has been carefully secluded
In the recesses OF her house till her
parents think she is old enough 10 bc
married. Having arrived at this con-
clusion, they announce the fact IL the
mere announcement is OF no avail,
they adopt strong measures. The la
dy's brother will politely come up to
friend In the street and pleasantly
remark: "You are just the fellow 4
wanted TO see. My sister il Ia years
old you must marry her"
No Albanian who respects himself
rejects the proposal of his friend, i'm
fact, he regards it as an honor, and
knows that refusal means duel TO
death. Like ether more western
mortals, he may have morbid curl
osity regarding his friends sisters
personal appearance, and then be has
to recourse to the inevitable old wonl-
an the entremetteuse in the true sense
of the word, whose profession l. to

bride, inspects her, and the returns 70
the expectant swain with o detailed
account of the young lady's qualities,
of course colored In proportion to The
fee she has received. Then the we'd
ding day il fixed, and at last the happy
pair are face to face.
The etiquette of Albania requires
the bridegroom to be coy and reluct-
ant /; it is considered degrading TO bis
dignity to affect any tenderness for
the fairer sex, and therefore he il
bound to offer strong resistance to her
approach. In marked contradistinc-
ton to the usual marriage ceremonies,
which point to capture of the bride,
the Albanian customs indicate d cap
ture of the bridegroom, and yet the
whole race displays degree of con-
tempt for women which j. not found
in the most barbarous nations. It's
worthy Of remark, also, that in every
family the males usually 60 to tie
mosque, the females to church.

The doctor. o man of dignity, of So
cial Importance, of professional weight,
and man who kept his classes in a
New York medical college sharply up
to the mark, and could i'll brook igno-
rance or stupidity, was one day ques-
tloning an assemblage OF young men in
the college amphitheatre, as to what
should be done when an acid reaction
was obtained in testing the various
fluids of the human body.
"What," he asked, "would you do If
you found mans blood acid ?"
There was no answer.
"Does no one know ?" said the doc
tor, beginning to wax wroth.
1t was painfully evident that no one
in the class had arrived at sufficient
pitch of pathological profoundly to
wipe the rapidly deepening stain Of ig-
norance from his class.
At last the doctor said fairly blazing,
swell. if you don't know I'm blessed
il tell YOU"
When the class was dismissed stu
dent, bolder than his fellows, approach
ed the doctor and said
"I beg your pardon, doctor, but we
ares.all anxious to know what we would
do il we found mans blood acid ?"
"Why. order his coffin, you FOOL
roared the doctor, and The interview
terminated with anger and contempt
on the one side and with grief and hui
initiation on the other.

The best society for the suppression
of pernicious literature is the family.
The best legislation that can be pass
ed for the prevention ofvile literature
can be passed by father and mother
in joint convention assembled. Daily
teaching to love and study good and
useful things will bring boys and girls
to detest the opposite. These are the
only means by which the sale of per-
nicious literature can never be per.
permanently and effectually suppress.

and the watchfullness of the societies

youth who have no parents to teach
them, but to provide sound early
